Whether you’re on the go or relaxing at home, there’s an easy way to make the music, movie, or game you’re playing on your smartphone or tablet sound way better. Just wirelessly pair it to a Bluetooth speaker.

Bluetooth on the go — portable parties and more

Portable Bluetooth speakers let you listen without headphones – and let your friends listen with you. But many of them offer other advantages, too. If you’re looking for portable sound, consider these options, too.

For traveling convenience, there’s nothing like a slender, compact Bluetooth speaker that fits easily into a briefcase, backpack, or purse. And while they may be small in size, the sound they deliver can sound surprisingly big.

If you play near the water, a water-resistant Bluetooth speaker like the Scosche boomBOTTLE H2O can be a great choice.

Weather-resistant for outdoor adventure

If you enjoy outdoor sports and activities, you might want a Bluetooth speaker that’s as rugged as your lifestyle. Weather-resistant Bluetooth speakers not only stand up to rain and snow, but they’re often built to be shock-resistant and dust-resistant, too. So they hold up to rough-and-tumble use and can sit in the sand at the beach.

A Bluetooth speaker with a USB charging port, like the JBL Charge 2, can keep your smartphone going when you're on the go.

Extra power for your smartphone

A Bluetooth speaker with a built-in recharger can be just the thing you need for that long plane flight or overnight camping trip. These types of speakers feature a USB charging port that can provide extra power to your smartphone or tablet.

Some Bluetooth speakers, like the UE BOOM, can be used as speakerphones when paired with a smartphone.

Speakerphone for hands-free calls

Some Bluetooth speakers also work as speakerphones. They have built-in microphones, so you can carry on a hands-free conversation. When a call comes in on your paired smartphone, it automatically routs to the speaker, which gives you the option of accepting the call or continuing to listen to your music.

Bluetooth in the home – convenience and sound quality

Wireless speaker systems like the MartinLogan Crescendo can make an attractive addition to a room while delivering high-quality sound.

Powered speakers make a simple sound system

There are a wide variety of compact Bluetooth powered speaker systems designed for home use. While they’re not portable, many offer more spacious and detailed sound than their portable counterparts. These systems are ideal for dens, offices, dorm rooms or apartments – wherever your smartphone is your principal music source, and space is at a premium.

Some Bluetooth powered speaker systems approach audiophile performance levels. Many accept apt-X® high-fidelity audio streaming, a form of Bluetooth that delivers a more detailed, less compressed signal. But all are compatible with standard Bluetooth, ensuring that whatever version your smartphone or tablet streams, you'll be able to play your music through the system.

Using a pair of Bluetooth powered speakers with your computer can help reduce desktop clutter (Harman Kardon Nova pictured).

Wireless computer speakers

Virtually all laptops have Bluetooth capability, and there are Bluetooth stereo speaker systems designed for them. Rather than connecting to your laptop’s headphone jack, these speakers connect wirelessly through Bluetooth. The advantage? You can pick up your laptop from your workstation without having to unplug your speakers.

Are there any good sounding wireless speakers available yet, that use a transmitter that you plug into a RCA (out) on the back of your receiver?

JT from KC, MO, I am not aware of a wireless speaker, bluetooth or wi-fi, that transmit, they all have receivers. Your best solution is one I have and recommend, a bluetooth transmitter, rechargeable or dc power. that accepts a 3.5mm male adapter with RCA male connectors.

JT from KC, MO, a slight adjustment to my previous comment. Depending on the bluetooth transmitter, you will need either a male or female 3.5mm to male RCA connector cable. I have rechargeable bt transmitter with a male connection built in so I am using a female 3.5mm to RCA male connector cable.

Free tech support for the lifetime of your product

I had to call for support on the evening of installation. Your tech helped me get going in minutes. It was good to be able to call at that hour, and nice to talk to someone who knew the problem immediately.
